KnowledgeConfig

autogen.beta.agent.KnowledgeConfig `dataclass` #

KnowledgeConfig(store, expose_tool=True, write_event_log=True, compact=None, compact_trigger=None, aggregate=None, aggregate_trigger=None, bootstrap=None)

Groups knowledge-related Agent parameters.

The store is registered into context.dependencies[KnowledgeStore] so policies (e.g. WorkingMemoryPolicy, EpisodicMemoryPolicy) can read from it without an extra parameter. Everything else is a side effect of attaching a store; each is opt-out via its flag below.

ATTRIBUTE	DESCRIPTION
`store`	The backing knowledge store. TYPE: `KnowledgeStore`
`expose_tool`	If True (default), the agent gets an auto-injected `knowledge` action-group tool that lets the LLM call `read` / `write` / `list` / `delete` on the store. Set to False when policies are the only consumer of the store and the LLM should not see it. TYPE: `bool`
`write_event_log`	If True (default), the agent persists its stream history to `/log/{stream_id}.jsonl` at the end of each `ask` call. Set to False to keep the store free of stream logs (useful when the store is purely user-facing memory). TYPE: `bool`
`compact,`	Optional compaction strategy and its firing rules. TYPE: `compact_trigger`
`aggregate,`	Optional aggregation strategy and its firing rules. Strategy failures emit `AggregationFailed` on the stream — subscribe to that event for observability. TYPE: `aggregate_trigger`
`bootstrap`	Optional custom bootstrap. None falls back to `DefaultBootstrap(mention_tool=expose_tool)`, so the generated SKILL.md text tells the LLM about the `knowledge` tool only when the tool is actually exposed. TYPE: `StoreBootstrap \| None`
